      Ladies help!!! How to get my wife past the notion of if I lift I will get bulky!!

      I got my wife started in the gym two weeks ago. We go every morning and run on the treadmill because she likes it. Only a mile. Then hit 45 mins of working out light weights 20 reps 3 sets. She will only work specific areas. And won’t listen to me that if she wants to burn fat faster.she would get better results doing heavy weight lower reps and train the whole body. Throughout the week for maximum fat burn through out the day. She keeps with this if I lift heavy I’m gonna get big crap. I ask her what makes her think that? She says because she has seen your body change in the past two years. I tell her yeah two years and I train way different. I’m down 50lbs and trade a few pounds of fat every couple months for muscle I tried to tell her she would have to eat more calories and train way harder than she is to put on size. Due to the fact that women don’t produce enough testosterone to build like men, but I’m her husband and don’t know what I’m talking about. How can I help get her past this thought? She’s 5’1” 1/2 130lbs... I thinks she looks good all over but she says her stomach and thighs need to go.. oh and she has a booty like none other.

      Lmao it always makes me laugh when women say this. I’ve literally never seen a woman who looks “bulky” unless they’re competing in open bodybuilding for women. Show her pictures of people who lift.

      I've been bulking. I've always been a little person and it's done wonders for for me all the way around. I have pics on my log. Try not to get to frustrated. Idk why I listened to my husband but I did and I'm glad.

      I hear this all the time and it’s definitely a misconception from lack of knowledge.. first off, women do not have the same amount of white muscle fiber types as men (which is what gives us males the ability to get size and density). So women have to try extra hard to get ‘big’ via eating incredible amounts of food and also becoming enhanced. And no I don’t mean just anavar or gh.. Try explaining that to her.

      There’s also a book called lift like a man, look like a goddess.. buy it for her and have her read it. It’ll explain more of what I mentioned above as well as probably give her a better idea of what she needs to do to look like a goddess, not a bulky she dude like she’s currently assuming lol

      I mean if you look around the gym also there’s not that many dudes that look bulky either. Her odds are pretty good for maintaining a feminine physique

      I will say this, the best thing my husband did for me was just be encouraging. He continued to tell me how great I looked and pointed out any kind of progress whatsoever. It helped knowing that no matter how much I picked myself apart, he wasn't going for it at all. So, keep encouraging her and tell her that you're proud. It goes a long way. Good luck to both of you.
